  Because Tory cuts mean the money to run these websites has to be found elsewhere.

  I haven’t seen any ads on them but then I’m using UBO. Seems plausible that they’re using visitor data as a revenue stream though. Sort of like how the BBC does not show us ads but sells its content internationally.

      Sounds bad. I haven’t used websites on a bare browser for a few years but I hear peoples inferences about it. It’s good to boycott bad websites too.
